BakBone also announced today that NetVault has successfully completed
testing as part of the Sun iForce Partner Program, which delivers proven
solutions that provide enhanced data availability while reducing cost and time
to market for Sun customers and partners.

This announcement marks the first phase in an ongoing collaboration
between the two companies. With technological cooperation ranging from
storage solutions for Sun's Opteron-based server line with support for Solaris
X86 and application level support for Oracle 10g, SAP R3, DB2 and MySQL,
BakBone provides seamless and heterogeneous data protection for networks
deploying Sun architecture.

"Small businesses are continually looking for affordable ways to improve
the protection of their valuable data assets while simplifying storage
management," said Adrian Jones, senior vice president, worldwide OEMs and
alliances group, BakBone Software. "The combination of BakBone's NetVault
software and the Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS device enables them to do just that --
enhance backup performance and data availability with NetVault while
leveraging existing storage investments with Sun's heterogeneous file server."

"With the launch of the SE5210 NAS device, Sun continues to build on its
commitment to bringing customers end-to-end network storage solutions that
reduce cost and complexity and simplify users' IT environments," said Tim
Palowski, general manager, network storage group, Sun. "We are pleased that
solution providers such as BakBone continue to support Sun's NAS offerings
helping to deliver solutions that protect our customers' data and keep their
businesses up and running."

Designed to provide entry-level departments, workgroups, and distributed
enterprises advanced features for backup and recovery, NetVault's broad tape
library support enables the seamless integration of data protection services
for the Sun StorEdge NAS device into a user's existing network storage
environment. Highly scalable, NetVault is easy to use and rapid to deploy
while offering significant flexibility by supporting all NDMP backup
configurations. These include local backup when a tape device is attached
directly to the NAS, remote backup allowing backup data to be directed to
devices attached on open systems clients, and three-way backup with devices
attached to remote NAS filers. In addition, NetVault's robust NDMP support
allows tape devices to be shared between multiple NAS filers and/or open
system machines, providing investment protection by extending a customer's
utilization of existing tape infrastructure.

NetVault users gain significant performance benefits that can be relied
upon to speed data recovery. Thanks to NetVault's automated installation and
device configuration features, NetVault can be installed and fully running in
a matter of hours, virtually eliminating the associated labor costs of
competitive backup solutions which can take days to implement.

The Sun StorEdge 5210 NAS is a heterogeneous storage device that provides
simple manageability, quick deployment, seamless integration, and flexible,
policy-based data services. The easy-to-use appliance is purpose-built for
simple operation, and can be typically set up in less than 15 minutes, thanks
to its intuitive and easy-to-use installation wizard. The Sun StorEdge 5210
NAS integrates seamlessly with UNIX and Microsoft Windows environments, making
it easy to share data across heterogeneous platforms, and its policy-based
data services, including integrated file management and SNAP/point-in-time
copy, protecting data and keeping businesses running.
